Favorite Chapter Books for Four Year Olds
What a year of reading! As we wrap up our fifth year of reading together, I asked Preschool Bookworm to look over our log of books we’ve read while he was four and choose his favorites. As any true bookworm…
Corduroy Birthday Party {Bookish Birthdays}
Toddler Bookworm’s favorite stuffed animal is adorably named “Cordy Roy,” also known as Corduroy. When I suggested having a Corduroy themed birthday party, he was ALL IN. Even though it was basically a play date with cake and presents, I…
Monthly Book Log {January 2018}
January is finally over. Longest month ever. We filled the long, gray days of January with some lovely books, but we are all excited for February! Preschool Bookworm turns 5 next week, a week before Valentine’s Day. I’m preparing a…
Closet Reading Nook Transformation {Nature Theme}
In a series of oddly related events, including installing a brand new roof on our home, we ended up transforming Preschool Bookworm’s closet into a reading nook as his “big” Christmas gift this year. It was the most magical gift…
Glorious “G” Authors {Picture Book Tour}
When I started out on the picture book tour idea, I thought it might take us about two years. Well, as it turns out it’s been a year and we’ve made it through the first seven stops. Insert #slowclap here.…
Resolving to Read: Tips for Reading More This Year
I’ve entered the golden age of reading. I haven’t read this much since I was nursing my first baby (for approximately 2000 minutes per week. Yes, I tracked it in an app. #typeAmama) Truth be told, I’ve had time in…

Last Year’s Gifts We’re Still Using
The elusive gift with staying power. I know I’m always searching for it, so I thought I would share gifts from last year that we’re still using. My bookworms are now about to turn 3 and 5 (in the next…
Monthly Book Log Blog {October 2017}
This month we polished off our longest chapter book read aloud to date, the endearing Appleblossom the Possum. At 278 pages, it took us the majority of the month but we never grew weary. Each night we snugged up and…
The Moon {Obsession, Meet Book series}
We’ve had a long standing obsession with the moon, but it has gone through cycles 😉 Pun intended. We are now (in early elementary school) most interested in moon cycles and learning the name of the monthly moon and the…
Monthly Book Log Blog {September 2017}
Our log looks lopsided this month. I don’t mind. We’re enjoying so many wonderful stories together. We are in a nighttime routine of reading chapter books together after a picture book or two with little brother. Annd, Preschool Bookworm reads…
Nature Pal Exchange- Our Experience & How to Sign Up
Last Fall my bookworms and I participated in a fabulous little program called Nature Pal Exchange. We were paired up with a family across the country, and we each prepared a box full of nature finds from our area and…
Monthly Book Log Blog {August 2017}
This month we primarily worked our way through a book in two formats– audio and hardcover, Tumtum and Nutmeg. We haven’t tried this with a chapter book before, and it worked out reasonably enough. The audiobook was an old school…
